  • Shortcut to turn audio tracks on and off???

    Posted by David Oulashian on January 27, 2006 at 12:47 am

    Hi,

    Can someone please tell me that there is a shortcut to turn individual audio tracks on and off (he hopes . . .) — I don’t mean a shortcut to select the tracks, rather to enable the little speaker icon.

    Thanks,

    David Oulashian

    Yes there is a shortcut to do that.

    Bustin’ my chops, eh? 😉 Okay, so the second question should have been “if so, what is that shortcut?”

    Thanks a lot,

    David

    guilty your honor. You can try using the Alt modifier while pressing the 9 or 0 key on main keyboard. That should do it. And you are right- there’s
    no track SOLO shortcut. (they make you Ctrl + click the speaker icon).

    Okay so [Alt] plus [9] or [0] does seem to turn on and off audio 1 and audio 2 but what about the other 6 audio tracks I have in my timeline?

    FYI I am on an Adrenaline 1.6

    Thanks a lot.

    you can map you keys to your keyboard.
    ctrl+3 to open the plate, and than drag and drop to your keyboard settings
    [under settings double click ‘keyboard’]
    I use keys 9,0 – + and F9-12 to map A1-A8

    Or, you can do the obligatory Shift+Ctrl+A to deselect ALL tracks. Ctrl+A to select all tracks.

    Or, Shift+drag mouse over all the tracks from top to bottom or bottom to top to select/deselect tracks.

    Actually, I wanted the shortcut to enable a track audio (turn on the speaker icon) not select the tracks themselves. [Alt] plus the audio track shortcut seems to work.

    Thanks,

    David
